On Set With Tea!

What Happened During My “Audition”?

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by someone who let me sit down to fill an application. I was sneaky enough to actually film the application form (where it didn’t reveal the name) and I feature it in the video below. Some parts of the application, I couldn’t fill in on the spot like my social insurance number, and my measurements. The agent came down and checked off “non-union” in a box and filled in my measurements. 


Then he asked me about my past experience. I had mentioned in my application that I was an extra in Camp Rock 2, and he said that the volunteers were originally suppose to be paid extras, but the production company decided to use volunteers so many extras lost their job, which I found kind of funny that Camp Rock 2 would choose to save money on something like that. 


Anyway, he then took my headshot that I brought with me, he told me that whenever there is a job, he calls first and then sends an email. If I can’t take the job, he said there would be no pressure but always make sure that you are positive that you can make it if you take the job. He also mentioned that once I got on set, I would have to fill in an application, and to never put my home address on my application, instead put the agency’s address. It was very quick and definitely exciting! I’ll get back to you guys once I start going more often!

incredibly unbelievably super sweet sixteen!

Birthdays are a, well, I’d love to say special time, but the harsh reality is that most of my birthdays after the age of 13 have been either whatever, or really bad. I think it was worth it, considering how amazing this year’s birthday was. Most teenagers dream of a glamourous sweet sixteen party. But me,  au contraire. I don’t see the joy in lashing out several thousands of dollars for other people’s entertainment. Isn’t it your special day?  So Instead, I just wanted to have a fun day with my mommy. I also don’t know how it happened, but she actually bought me a macbook pro, which i’m currently writing on right now. I’ve wanted one for like 10 years, so children let this be a lesson- you can have anything you want. Work hard, be dedicated and be open to new ideas. Anyways, onto the actual birthday; at first the plan was New York, then Niagara Falls, and then we decided to just go back to this beautiful creek that I spent my summers as a little kid. The whole ride there I couldn’t stop thinking, “some things really don’t change”, while listening to an ancient cd of U2. Your parents listen to that too, right? Haha well, I wanted to share my beautiful day with you guys, at least with some pictures.

The ride through the countryside

The gorgeous waterfall that you can actually jump into, except the current
will most definitely take you away...

Okay tell me this isn’t the cutest thing ever...

Earlier on in the day, before going to the creek.

 This is a violeta blackcurrant cake made by dadu. If you ever see one,
buy ten.

Final decisions

I'm at that point in my 10th year where they are making us chose a career, in several classes and chose classes for next year that will be shown to universities.
For days I felt so much pressure and it was just new to me, this idea of having to chose from a doctor, lawyer, scientist, all that stuff that I honestly would never want to do. I love travelling, I love the world, I love culture and humanities. Oh and I'm only like..really good at it too. Except what kind of job does one who likes to travel get?! -.- a travel agent? lol. Basically, I found a "job" I would be over the moon about. It takes lots of university and entering economics.. which isn't my cup of tea to say the least. It's a one in a million job but I want to be that one, and I sure believe I can be :) I'm not telling anyone what it is because it sounds crazy and I don't want to explain to anyone what it entitles. But I also don't want to jinx it. I'm not one to talk talk talk, I'm one to do.

Macarons?

Today's post has a little bit of absolutely nothing to do with acting. I actually wanted to know, have any of you tried macarons? Because I've seen them around the internet and they looked amazing. I honestly could not even imagine how they would taste, but now that I've tried them, I would describe it as a sweet-crispy-jelly that is stiff... in other words, amazing. I know my pictures are not the best in the world, but I did manage to take some. For some reason, the ones my mom bought were almost 3 dollars a piece, and really really small. I thought they were suppose to be pretty decently big, but apparently, they're tiny. Right now, I want to go to Laduree in Paris and eat every macaron in the store.. I would.
Macarons anybody? ;)
